ReSiDeNt Show Friday May 29

Our spring ReSiDeNts present their work in concert on May 29:

Syd Thee Phantasm, a technological, cybernetic freak, combining psychoacoustics and cymatics; using LEMURbots to produce a fitting sum of sound waves.

Louie Rozier, veteran multi-instrumentalist & composer, lives in a soundworld of both the beat and the abstract. In a mind-meld with highly advanced and powerful LEMURbots, he and bassist/percussionist Shyam Bradman have built a room of power, beat, color and abstraction (rhythmician.com, basswriter.com).

ReSiDeNt: New Artists, New Instruments, New Works
Friday, May 29th, 8:00 pm
LEMUR, 461 Third Avenue between 9 & 10 Sts, Brooklyn
